To those who had this problem, which plant did your Fit come from? My 2010 Fit Sport with this issue came from Sayama, Saitama Japan (as shown on window sticker)

Can someone take a pic of where to access the seat bolts?

seat issues

I found this discussion topic while looking to see if any other fit owners were having back problems. I have been having lower back pain from the seat in my 2010 fit. I found if I pull forward on the headrest the "active head rest" system inside the seat pulls back into the seat enough were it doesn't jab into my lower back.....

Any suggestion on how to remedy this problem. I haven't noticed a rocking seat yet but maybe a solution exists for both of these issues.

Dunno if it's designed for this, but if I pull the headrest forward, and lean firmly into the seatback, it locks the headrest in place in the "active" position. It will not release until I pull the headrest forward again.

Check out this thread, and if you do find that the inboard front seat rail bolts are loose, please go over to the NHTSA web site and file a complaint.

A recall on this issue is far overdue.

Honda actually released a service bulletin on this issue, which you can find in the TSB sticky (https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...tml#post806379). It basically says to tighten the bolts .

Here's a direct link though: Driver?s or Front Passenger?s Seat Rattles or Clunks When It?s Moved Forward or Backward, or When Driving Over Bumps or http://techinfo.honda.com/Rjanisis/pubs/SB/A10-058.PDF

my drivers seat doesnt, but my front passenger seat rattles pretty loudly when going over bumps, even small ones. Seems to be related to the rail bolts
